Abstract: We consider the original strategy proposed by Sudakov for solving the Monge transportation problem with norm cost $|cdot{|}_{D^{\ast }}$ [ min �igg{int |mathtt T(x) - x|_{D^*} dmu(x), mathtt T : mathbb R^d o mathbb R^d, u = mathtt T_# mu �igg}, ] with $mu$, $u$ probability measures in $mathbb{R}^d$ and $mu$ absolutely continuous w.r.t. $mathcal{L}^d$. The key idea in this approach is to decompose (via disintegration of measures) the Kantorovich optimal transportation problem into a family of transportation problems in $Z_{m}athfrakaimesmathbb{R}^d$, where ${Z_{m}athfraka}_{mathfrakainmathfrakA}subsetmathbb{R}^d$ are disjoint regions such that the construction of an optimal map $mathtt{T}_{m}athfraka:Z_{m}athfrakaomathbb{R}^d$ is simpler than in the original problem, and then to obtain $mathttT$ by piecing together the maps $mathtt{T}_{m}athfraka$. In this paper we show how the original idea of Sudakov can be successfully implemented. The results yield a complete characterization of the Kantorovich optimal transportation problem, whose straightforward corollary is the solution of the Monge problem in each set $Z_{m}athfraka$ and then in $mathbb{R}^d$. The strategy is sufficiently powerful to be applied to other optimal transportation problems.
